Fakes Getting Better And Better, Such A Pain To Buy pre Owned From Privates.
Hi To everyone, I want to share an episode that happened to me in these days. I was proposed a Audemars Piguet Barrichello, pre owned in mint condition from a private seller. So I said : if the price is good I will go for it l After a long chat, the private seller was saying that he lost the original warranty, can happen. .. The day after we meet in my showroom and after a great look at the watch I wasn't 100% sure about his originality. So I decided do bring it to my watchmaker and after opening the caseback the verdict was clear.... Be carefull, and buy only from reputable sellers!!!!

Places in the UK to source an AP 15300?
I've previously owned a Royal Oak diver but it was quite a large, heavy watch for me as I'm around 3 stone wet through So I'm interested in a 15300. I don't mind used and I'm expecting this is the way to go as it's unlikely I'll find one new now from a store. Where are the go to places for AP for people on here?Thanks

Lets see those Speedmasters...
Here is my latest...and my other latest.

5522A AR Coating?
I received a 5522A a couple weeksago (Love it). But as I just look at it over and over I realized the crystal has a hairline scratch in it. It is so small you can feel it and I am not completely sure it not on the underside of the crystal. I have some Scratch Genie for watches that is supposed to be able to polish sapphire crystal so I though of giving it a try. The only problem is I don't know if there is an AR coating on it. It looks to me like there isn't but the watchmaker at my AD said there was...there is no blue at all in the reflection. I really don't want to send it to Patek to get fixed for 3 or 4 months so I am considering trying this but obviously a little nervous about it. It did come with this slight scratch but most people wouldn't notice it.What are your thoughts?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
